DAY 2 - FAVOURITE CHARACTER
SNAAAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
It could only be this bloke. I wanted to go for Naked Snake - Big Boss - who is technically my favourite incarnation but picking his son allowed me to squeeze in more classic varations as his story spreads across multiple games. Here is a man who is invading heavily fortified military installations - pitted against ruthless terrorists with severe personality disorders - and he is having a whale of a time. It's not lost on me that Snake is an utter prick. His a complete bastard to most people he meets in the game and comes across as a crass, charmless James Bond but that's all part of the appeal. Wolves bone him, Christopher Eccleston could play his evil brother in a movie, he can pilot a mini nuke like an RC car and he smuggles cigarettes inside his STOMACH.
AWESOME!
